On Monday 4th August 2025, legendary South Australian pub rock favourites ‘The Angels’ have been immortalised by the City of Adelaide with the naming of a city laneway featuring striking public artworks.

The Angels Lane is located adjacent to the Hindley Street Music Hall in the vibrant West End, with the popular live music venue part of the creative project.

It will become part of a growing trail of laneways within the Adelaide CBD celebrating South Australia’s musical heritage while inviting locals and visitors to support contemporary artists and businesses.

The Angels become the fifth act to receive this honour, joining iconic local musicians Sia Furler, Cold Chisel, No Fixed Address and Paul Kelly.

Lord Mayor Dr Jane Lomax-Smith said the naming and transformation of the laneway was a fitting tribute to The Angels, one of South Australia’s most beloved rock bands.

“From packed pubs to festival stages, The Angels helped shape the sound of South Australia and now their legacy has a permanent place in our city’s streets,” said the Lord Mayor.

“This honour both acknowledges rock royalty and reinforces Adelaide’s global reputation as a UNESCO City of Music.”

The Angels Lane features artworks which bring the band’s legacy to life through a dynamic mix of media. They include:

A large-scale mural on the side of the Hindley Street Music Hall facing Morphett Street
A second bold mural next to the newly installed Hindley Street public toilets
Glowing lightboxes and stencilled projections beamed from the TAFE SA Currie Street campus
The Angels founding member John Brewster said the band owed its early days to Adelaide.

“We are proud sons of Adelaide. Our journey began with The Moonshine Jug and String Band. We played all the music venues, the universities, even Marcellina’s Pizza, the Pancake Kitchen, Cowley’s Pie Cart and more,” he said.

“We couldn’t be happier for the City of Adelaide to recognise the heritage of The Angels with The Angels Lane.”

South Australian filmmaker and digital artist CAPITAL WASTE (Liam Somerville) and internationally renowned street artist Vans the Omega (Joel Van Moore) were commissioned by Council to create artworks that span the laneway.

"It’s an honour to reunite with The Angels again after shooting their documentary Kickin’ Down The Door in 2022,” said Somerville.

“Our work references the iconic imagery of The Angels including their theatrical approach to onstage lighting, classic album covers and onstage antics.”

The City of Adelaide said the realisation of The Angels Lane has been made possible through valued partnerships with TAFE SA and the Kambitsis Group.

Background
Formed in Adelaide in 1970 as the Moonshine Jug and String Band by brothers John and Rick Brewster, the addition of Bernard ‘Doc’ Neeson in 1972 saw the band evolve into The Keystone Angels in 1974 and then The Angels in 1975.

The Angels’ massive breakthrough moment came in 1978 when their smash-hit album Face to Face achieved 4-times platinum status with rhythm section Graham ‘Buzz’ Bidstrup and Chris Bailey.

Electrifying live performances and enduring hits including ‘Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again’, ‘Take A Long Line’, ‘No Secrets’, ‘Marseille’ and ‘Shadow Boxer’ secured The Angels’ place in Australian rock history.

Dance-event in Rotterdam tijdelijk ontruimd na incident

ROTTERDAM (ANP) - Een dance-evenement in de Van Nellefabriek in Rotterdam is zaterdagavond tijdelijk stilgelegd na een incident waarbij mogelijk een irriterende stof is verspreid. Bezoekers kregen last van hun ogen en ademhaling, waarna het pand uit voorzorg werd ontruimd. Nadat de brandweer het gebouw had geventileerd, kon het evenement worden hervat.

Het incident gebeurde tijdens een optreden van de Australische dj Haai op het evenement Audio Obscura. De politie bevestigt dat er een melding is geweest van een stof die op traangas leek, maar metingen van de brandweer konden dat niet bevestigen, zegt een woordvoerder van de veiligheidsregio.

Ongeveer een half uur na het incident kon het publiek weer naar binnen. De organisatie zegt op Instagram dat de vermoedelijke veroorzaker is verwijderd. De politie heeft niemand aangehouden.


Meerdere doden door lawines in Noord-Italiaanse Alpen

SONDRIO (ANP/DPA) - Zeker vier mensen zijn omgekomen bij meerdere lawines in de Noord-Italiaanse Alpen. Er raakten ook skiërs gewond. In het Valtellina-gebied sleurde een lawine drie skitoeristen mee, waarvan er twee stierven. In de regio Trentino-Zuid-Tirol meldde de Italiaanse bergreddingsdienst twee lawines met elk één dode.

De autoriteiten hadden gewaarschuwd voor een zeer hoog lawinegevaar.

Bij het eerste incident in Trentino werden aanvankelijk vier mensen vermist. Na een grootschalige zoek- en reddingsactie werd de groep gevonden. Twee bleken gewond. Een van hen bezweek in het ziekenhuis.

In de Aostavallei werden twee skiërs uit een groep van vijf personen door een lawine meegesleurd. Ze waren echter goed uitgerust en konden zich uit de sneeuwmassa's bevrijden.

UK’s ‘unsung army’ of full-time unpaid carers needs more support, report says

Resolution Foundation finds one in three carers from poorer families unable to work because of responsibilities

A growing “unsung army” of 1 million people with full-time caring responsibilities needs better support, according to a report that found one in three unpaid carers from poorer backgrounds were unable to work because of their duties.

The trend is the result of an ageing society and rising ill-health and disability concentrated in the poorest half of the country’s working-age families, the Resolution Foundation’s research found.

Zaterdag Nacht C🔅medy – afl 2 Ice Ice Baby

In deel 1 konden we meeleven met Satan die in een #metoo relatie zit met Donny T.

Toen was Satan zwanger van Donny T. maar 🤬 en toen 😬 🫢 😲 want 🤑 dus 👿 nu niet meer.  Emotioneel gebroken zit Satan in de tuin van de White House als Vance hem benaderd ….

Maar Satan blijkt niet de enige te zijn met stevige emotionele issues. Kristi Noem hoofd van Homeland Security lijkt haar medicatie al ruim een jaar niet meer te nemen voor… teveel om op te noemen eigenlijk. Maar voordat we daar dieper op in gaan, eerst maar even een warme Jimmy Kimmel psycho analyse van sweetheart Kristi.

Terug naar Southpark waar Mister MacKey wanhopig een baan zoekt.

Verward door dit verhaal, het wordt allemaal wel duidelijk..of niet… 

Even fast backward ⏪ wat is eigelijk de screening om ICE agent te worden ? Gaat dat echt zo snel als bij mr Mackey ?

Volgende week Part 3, stay tuned !

Waymo Reveals Remote Workers In Philippines Sometimes Advise Its Driverless Cars

Waymo surprised U.S. lawmakers Wednesday during a hearing on autonomous vehicles and their safety and oversight. Newsweek reports:



During questioning, Sen. Ed Markey, a Massachusetts Democrat, asked what happens when a Waymo vehicle encounters a driving situation it cannot independently resolve. "The Waymo phones a human friend for help," Markey explained, adding that the vehicle communicates with a "remote assistance operator." Markey criticized the lack of public information about these workers, despite their role in vehicle safety...

[Dr. Mauricio Peña, chief safety officer at Waymo] responded by clarifying the scope of the operators' involvement: "They provide guidance, they do not remotely drive the vehicles," Peña said. "Waymo asks for guidance in certain situations and gets input, but Waymo is always in charge of the dynamic driving task," according to EVShift Pressed further on where those operators are located, Peña told lawmakers that some are based in the United States and others abroad, though he did not have an exact breakdown. After additional questioning, he confirmed that overseas operators are located in the Philippines...

The disclosure prompted sharp criticism from Markey, who raised concerns about security and labor implications. "Having people overseas influencing American vehicles is a safety issue," he said. "The information the operators receive could be out of date. It could introduce tremendous cyber security vulnerabilities," according to People. Markey also pointed to job displacement, noting that autonomous vehicles already affect taxi and rideshare drivers in the U.S. Waymo defended the practice in comments to People, saying the use of overseas staff is part of a broader effort to scale operations globally.

Waymo also defended the remote workers to Newsweek as licensed drivers reviewed for "driving-related convictions" and other traffic violations who are also "randomly screened for drug use."
